Which of the following is NOT a service of micro finance institution?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Micro deposit.
Microfinance institutions (MFIs) primarily provide financial services to low-income individuals or groups who lack access to traditional banking. Their key services include:
-
Microloan: Small loans for income-generating activities or personal needs.
-
Micro insurance: Insurance products tailored to low-income households to cover health, life, or assets.
-
Micro saving: Small-scale savings schemes to encourage financial inclusion and security.
Micro deposit is not a standard service of MFIs; it is a banking term referring to small deposits used for account verification or fraud prevention, not a core MFI product.
